The binding energy divided by the atomic mass number for strongly-bound, "normal" nuclei is around 7,5 MeV/nucleon. The energies needed to break up the named weakly-bound nuclei are well below this value. Due to this property, reactions involving weakly-bound nuclei are much more complex and interesting: the breakup channel in the continuum affects all other reaction channels and gives su…
Studies involving light exotic nuclei are a field of research of great interest since it encompasses new phenomena such as nuclear halo, cluster structures, new magic numbers, even implications on fundamental problems of nuclear astrophysics such as the synthesis of heavy elements. In the RIBRAS system we produce secondary beams of light nuclei such as 6He, 7Be, 8Li, 8B, 10Be, 12B and oth…
We propose an exchange of researchers from the nuclear physics groups at the Radioactive lon Beams in Brazil (RIBRAS) laboratory of the University of Sao Paulo, and at the School of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Edinburgh. There exists a large overlap in the research interests of both groups in the field of experimental nuclear physics and astrophysics of unstable isotopes. B…
The physics of exotic nuclei corresponds currently the frontier of nuclear physics in the low energies domain. The present project involves scattering and nuclear reactions measurements induced by light exotic projectiles such as 6He, 8Li and others on targets of different masses. The secondary beams of light exotic nuclei are produced by the Ribras (Radioactive Ion Beams in Brazil) syst…

The RIBRAS (Radioactive Ion beams in Brazil) system is a unique experimental facility in Brazil to produce secondary beams of light nuclei out of the stability line such as 6He, 7Be, 8Li, 8B, among others. RIBRAS resumed its operation in October 2023, with the cooling of the first solenoid and the installation of the new fully digitized electronic/acquisition system. In October-November/2…
This work plan is connected to the present thematic research project with similar name. Thework plan consists in the use of existing and the installation of new digital equipment (stripdetectors for charged particles, Lyso gamma detectors and electronic devices mainly digitizers) in the Open Laboratory of Nuclear Physics (LAFN) of IF-USP. The new digital equipment will be purchased with t…
The project consists of studies to expand the beam line of the Ribras system beyond secondary camera after the second solenoid in order to allow the use of gama array detectors. It would allow the measurements of nuclear reactions in particle-gama coincidences which would enhance our possibilities to identify different reaction channels. Additionally the candidate will participate in the …
The spectroscopy in the continuum of light nuclei such as ^{6,7}Li, ^{8,9}Be and others still remains a relatively unexplored field, and the ability to produce these nuclei from entrance channels involving exotic nuclei is relatively recent. The present project consists in the measurement of angular distribution and excitation function of the 6He+p system, that will provide information a…
During the last years the study of nuclei far from beta stability line (exotic nuclei) has become an object of great interest specially because they constitute an extremely wide and unknown research field, involving since proton and neutron rich light nuclei up to super-heavy elements. Exotic nuclei present extremely low binding energies and large isospin values constituting a "laborator…
